Club Gear: The Power Strangers at Lake Placid

The 24th annual Lake Placid Summit Lacrosse Classic was as advertised — perhaps the greatest summer event both in terms of the lacrosse itself and also for the incredible amount of custom team uniforms, apparel and gear we spotted up there.

One of the more wacky and wildy entertaining outfits was worn by the Power Strangers, a team out of Albany, N.Y., competing in the men's Open 2 division and including a roster made up of players from the Capital Region, Central New York and other areas. The team ended up winning the Ope 2 bracket thanks to a 9-4 victory over Stixx-N-Stones.

The Power Strangers kit, in case you haven't heard already, came in a variety of different colorways, just like the outfits worn by the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, a cartoon that premiered back in 1993 and has since been spun off into other concepts as part of a successful franchise. The team went through Breakaway Lacrosse (and our friend Jeff Serge) to get these hilarious threads, which created quite a buzz at the Summit Classic. (You can see the Breakaway logo in the belt medallion on these uniforms.)
